PNG to JPG: best photos and fixes.

Why a PNG is so large

PNG is lossless, so it stores every pixel without throwing detail away. That is great for logos and screenshots and costly for photos. A phone screenshot may be 1 to 3 MB, and a PNG of a photo can reach 10 MB or more. JPG discards detail your eye barely notices, so the same photo may be a tenth of the size.

Does it lose quality?

Yes, a little. JPG is lossy, and the change cannot be undone, but at quality 85 a photograph looks the same on screen. Where it shows is on sharp edges: text, thin lines and flat colors can get faint ringing around them. If the PNG is mostly text or graphics, raise quality to the 90s or keep PNG. Judge it by looking at the text.

Transparency becomes a color

JPG cannot be transparent. A PNG logo or cut-out would show black or an odd color if converted naively, so this tool paints the transparent areas with the color you choose. White is right for documents and most websites. Pick the color of the page it will sit on if it is something else. If the page is dark, choose black or a matching color instead, so no white edge shows.

Getting under a size limit

Many upload forms cap images at 1 or 2 MB. Converting a photo PNG to JPG at quality 85 is normally enough. If it is still too big, try 75. Beyond that, check the pixel size: a 6000 pixel wide image is far more than most forms need, so shrink it first and convert afterward. Keep a copy of the PNG in case you need to try again with a different quality.

Built-in options

On Windows, open the PNG in Paint and use Save as, JPEG picture. On a Mac, open it in Preview and choose File, Export, then JPEG. Those work for one file at a time. This page is quicker when you have a folder of images and want to control the quality for all of them. For a whole folder, set the quality once and every file gets the same setting.

What happens to the files

Everything is converted in your browser; nothing is sent anywhere. Each JPG keeps its original name with a .jpg ending. The PNG originals are not changed. Images over 16 megapixels are scaled down first, which only affects very large exports. The converted files appear in a list, so you can compare sizes before downloading. Nothing is stored after you close the page, and the tool adds no watermark.

Does converting PNG to JPG reduce quality?

Slightly. JPG is lossy, but at quality 85 to 95 photos look the same. Sharp text and flat graphics show the loss first.

Save it as JPG if it has no transparency, and lower the quality a little. Large pixel dimensions also add to size.
